Ricotta stuffed mushrooms

HALF WAY!!!

Day 15 of 30!

From now, it gets to feel like more of a challenge...I'm going completely blank when people ask 'what are we eating tomorrow?'

But it's a good sign that I will take myself out of my comfort zone and try things I've never tried before!

Still on the theme of vegetarian (my sister is visiting and vegetarian) I found this quick recipe on Jamie Oliver late last night, and it has taken about 10 minutes!

Perfect for a starter, or as part of a selection of appetisers.

So quite simply, you will need:

12 mushrooms per person

2 tablespoons ricotta cheese

freshly grated parmesan

salt & pepper

zest of 1 lemon

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1/2 teaspoon dried origano

a dirizzle of olive oil in the oven dish for baking

Pre-heat your oven to 200c.

Remove the stalks and peel the mushrooms. I've just used regular closed up mushrooms but portobello mushrooms would make a more substantial meal.

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl.

Using a teaspoon, fill each mushroom and top with a little extra freshly grated parmesan. Drizzle oil over them for baking.

Bake for 25 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

I'll reheat & serve this later with a green salad for my sister. Voila!
